High School Gear: Culver Military Academy Eagles

Inside Lacrosse and ILGear.com were recently visited by the Eagles of Culver Military Academy, the private school located in Indiana that has built a strong reputation in the past few seasons as a force on the national high school lacrosse scene. Head coach Jon Posner and his players came to Baltimore to take on local area teams, and while they were here, they stopped by the IL offices.

Of course, we made sure they brought some of their custom team gear so we could shoot it. This season, the Eagles are outfitted in Cascade Pro7 helmets, custom Warrior Regulator gloves and a range of custom apparel and game-day wear from Nike.

Not only that, but the Eagles also showed up in their travel uniforms, which we photographed as well. Visiting with the team and then watching them put on a fine display against Boy's Latin was a great experience.

Each student at Culver has one of these sweaters. Upon lettering in a varsity sport, the student-athlete will receive the Culver "C" patch and a symbol patch of the sport he participated in. (We can see here that Dean plays both football and lacrosse.)

This cross-rifle pin on Dean's collar indicates that he's part of the Culver infantrymen. The "A" tells us that Dean is part of Company A.

This pin indicates that Dean is a First Sergeant.

The Culver hard hat is given out to the hardest working player during each practice and games.
